Penile Sparing Techniques For Penile Cancer

Penile cancers are rare malignancies. Traditional surgical options, including partial and total penectomy, can dramatically affect a patient's quality of life and mental health. In select patients, penile sparing techniques (PST) have the potential to remove the primary tumor with comparable oncologic outcomes while maintaining penile length, sexual function, and urinary function. In this review, we aim to discuss the indications, advantages, and outcomes of the various PST currently available for men seeking an organ-preserving option for their penile cancer.
